Ho-lee-fuck, was about to post the same thing. When did this happen? I honestly don't give a rats ass about baseball so I have zero clue. And I dunno, couldn't CC's timing be any shittier? It's not likely he became an alcoholic within the last month. Supposedly he got in a confrontation with some fans in a Toronto bar last month.. and had to be pulled out and spirited away by a friend. Have a pal in Fla. who said CC's carousing and partying during Spring training were legendary but kept on the down-low because (a) its not uncommon, and (b) he's generally well-liked. There was also the incident where someone photographed him a few weeks ago with a "cigar" type object in his mouth that may or may not have been a "cigar". Anhoo.. I'm thinking something bad happened this week that we will be hearing about, otherwise the Yanks would have been able to baby-sit him through the playoffs, then quietly send him off to treatment.

Yeah the timing does sound sketchy. Forced rehab.

Sometimes it takes something crazy in your mouth to convince you you have a problem. aT least that's what s friend told me. I wouldn't know.

Ever heard the story of Mel Famey? Was he the best pitcher that ever threw a baseball? Back in the 1950s, there were a lot of folks who thought so. Mel Famey of the Milwaukee Braves was a natural -- a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon whose fast ball blew away the best hitters. His 90 MPH curve ball would start out like it was going to hit the batter's ear, only to break at the last instant and hit the outside corner of the plate for a strike.
His change up made the best hitters in the league cry -- they would swing, drop the bat, and stare incredulously as the ball hit the catcher's mitt.
He was indeed awesome!
Why then, you might ask, is he not in the Hall of Fame? Why haven't you ever heard of him?
Alas, like many others before him, Mel's downfall was demon alcohol.
Ol' Mel really liked to tilt the glass. His drinking became almost legendary around the country, but he never let it affect his pitching until The Braves and the Yankees were in the World Series!
Excitement reigned!
The series was tied at three games apiece, and the Braves were in New York for the seventh and deciding game.
The night before the big event, Mel's thirst got the better of him. He sneaked out of the hotel after curfew, and bought himself two cases of beer.
As you might imagine, the next morning Mel didn't feel too good.
But being the pro that he was, Mel managed to do just fine -- until the bottom of the ninth inning. With the Braves ahead by one run, two out, and the bases loaded, Mel's revelry the night before finally caught up to him.
Eight straight pitches -- eight straight balls. He walked in the tying run and the winning run, thereby, losing the game and the series.
After the game, a reporter went to the jubilant Yankee's clubhouse and spoke to the last two players that faced Mel. "Tell me," he asked, "to what do you attribute this victory over the best pitcher in the major leagues"?
In unison they replied, ... "It was the beer that made Mel Famey walk us"!
